The name of this train is ‘Hydral’ and it is prepared by the French company, ‘Alstome’ for Germany and it can be declared as environment friendly. He runs with the help of Hydrogen and it is very quiet and comfortable. It releases the steam and vapors of water in the air, which do not damage the environment. There is vast network of four thousands trains in Germany, which runs with diesel. But they will be changed on Hydrogen and the emission of the gases can be zeroed, which can cause green house.

The Hydrogen train was shown practically in a transport exhibition, which was conducted in Germany last week and it was given the title of ‘Hydrail’. This train will be run in North Western Germany experimentally and after getting the approval, it will be used on a large scale in Germany in 2017.

Lower Saxony, a state of Germany have given the order of 14 more Hydrail to the French Company and it will be tried in different parts. They are installed with Lithium ion batteries, which drive the train and the hydrogen fuel tanks provide energy to the batteries, which are installed at the roof of the train. 94 kilogram fuel tank is enough for a whole day for one train and keep 300 passengers to their destination running with the speed of 140 kilometers. There were different experiments, which were carried out to run the train with the help of Hydrogen and now this is the first regular passenger train, which will use the Hydrogen gas.
